Chinese Dragon Playing Pearl. The dragon is a legendary creature that has been revered in ancient myths and legends of China and other East Asian countries. It is seen as the ruler of the skies, in charge of clouds and rain, and is also known as the master of wind and rain. In Chinese culture, the dragon is considered to be an auspicious animal and is depicted in various forms of art and decoration. One of the most iconic depictions is that of two dragons facing each other, playing with a precious orb, which is referred to as the eastern dragon playing with the pearl. Sometimes people also call this pearl as dragon fireball or dragonball. The traditional Chinese interpretation of this depiction is that it embodies the “life consciousness” of the ancients, representing the recognition, understanding, and development of the endless cycle of life. In this context, the “pearl” played with by the dragons is seen as the symbol of a dragon egg and the dragons playing with it represent care and respect for life. This image also symbolizes the relationship between parents and their children, as well as the worship of the sun, with the pearl being seen as a representation of the sun rising from the east.
